why do you assume that i know? lol

if i had to guess, i'd say no for this season
if he were to get convicted down the line and tossed in jail (he won't), then i'd guess there's some kind of out so they're not carrying a $10m/year cap hit forever

no real point in speculating at this point imo
still feels like it might get settled and never see the inside of a courtroom

The back end of the "big" club still scares me, to be honest.

Flames signed Robyn Regehr Dog Murray to a PTO for some reason

i can only assume it's so that their young offensive players can really shine / so that their goalies can get some good work in / lolBurkie

was good enough to be paired with Subban and matched against Ovechkin, according to MIKE

Well "some" people know why that shat was taken.

If you have to misquote me though, you could at least use some of your newfound poetic skills on me.

To be clear I've never said he was a "grate" coach only that he is no where near as bad as "some" people here say. To put up the results the Habs have over the last couple of years without a 1st line center or even a good 2nd one he has to be doing something right that doesn't show up in the fancy stats. The way "some" of you talk that Habs roster was the real coach MIKE away from a Stanley Cup and that is laughable.

Hawks sign Hejda and Panthers Havlat to PTOs. Teams really scraping the bottom of the barrel now

"The number 1 criteria we have is experienced scouts watching them play, and the things you see in a game that don’t show up on computer. A guy makes a mistake, comes off. You see a captain lean over and say something to him. See a coach bark at a guy. Does he slump? What's his body language? How does he warm up? Is he intense? All the stuff a computer is never going to show you. A computer just registers a blocked shot; it doesn't show you that this guy dove headfirst to get it."

also didn't notice until it was mentioned in DGB's latest article, but Sergei Kostitsyn signed a PTO with Calgary
could there possibly be a worse fit for him than a Hartley/Burkie team? jfc

has zero chance with that kind of body language

actual retort to Burkie WIM vs Corsi coming up, but isn't HEART and WIM and GRIT, theoretically calculated into corsi anyway?

yes

but ofc guys like Burkie want to pretend that there's +++value WIMtangiblies out there that are translated on the bench, in the room, etc

like idk, kinda sorta yeah, but nowhere near to the degree they suggest
and sure, do your interviewing and all that then, go ahead

but man do they love that sortby$tat$ red herring
guess i can't blame them, it's all they got left

Meant to make a post about that as well, but got distracted with other things. Looking through my old photobucket for the Sergei photos, I came across some of these beauties:
